ROCKPILE REVIEW - The Hopeless Optimist
Figster replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Peterman won the QB competition from appearances, so I tend to agree with you Nickel. (outside the fact they should have kept McCarron on the roster that is) Oline mishandling on the other hand now is a different story which I think had allot to do with why the QB competition didn't give us a good indicator in my humble opinion. A J gets banged up, Allen gets the back of his head slammed into the turf in his own end zone. Not good. Yup, lets start/sacrifice Peterman to the football Gods... ...kid has a fast enough read and release he may survive... ... Ok... its getting late... -
ROCKPILE REVIEW - The Hopeless Optimist
Figster replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Nor do I, Now had you asked me the same question before Allen returned from injury on his throwing arm I may have answered differently. I'm inclined to think Allens development might be a little ahead of schedule then where McDermott planned it to be after Josh Allens rookie season in my humble opinion. Barkley played very well and its possible under a different scenario Bills fans could be watching another QB competition this preseason. I think Allens improvement by seasons end took care of that problem. -
Daboll would in all likelihood be looking for and taking into consideration any advice McDermott may have on the the short and long term develpment of Josh Allen IMO. McDermotts experience working in the same camp as Cam Newton an athlete with a much similar skill set and an ability to help game plan the opposition gives Daboll a perspective through the eyes of a DC. For the most part though I think Daboll has been and will continue to the call the shots.

It took 1 season to accomplish what no other Bills HC could accomplish in over 18 years.(playoffs) It took 2 seasons to accomplish what no Bills GM has accomplished in over 2 decades.(franchise QB) Top 3 D with very little talent. Myself personally, while Buffalo may not win 4 Superbowls over the next decade, winning one works for me... -

Young HC, GM, learning from their mistakes I'm sure. Josh Allen is probably ahead of schedule now because of it IMO. Like you Rocky, it brought back memories of TE. If I'm McD, I'm probably staying with the hot hand of Barkley until I could shore up the Oline. As it turns out, the best thing for the teams immediate future was Allen finishing the season behind center. Josh carried his team at the college level, and already doing it as a rookie in the Pro's. One Buffalo strong... -

The Process in two words "continuous Improvment" Shaw did a good job pointing out to what great lengths the process takes the Buffalo Bills IMO. Josh Allen and his fellow teamates bought into the process and by seasons end we started seeing results. Remains to be seen how it will all pan out and posts like yours helps keep us grounded. -

So many positives in the way the Buffalo Bills are being managed, coached, and backed by ownership with everyone on the same page its no wonder the Bills fan base is talking playoffs and beyond already. McD is going to continue to find ways to improve and the team is going to follow his lead. Intelligent, motivated players with a purpose. Leading the charge, Josh Allen. I think you can bet on Allen... -

Expectations for Josh Allen this year
Figster replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Nice reply, My expectations are very high because along with the boatload of talent , Josh Allen has a good head on his shoulders and protects the football well. Not hardwired yet , I like that assessment. (Barkley, hardwired) -
When he kept us knuckle heads in line and at peace with one another so the party could continue.
